Josemaria was a tough guy, imagine losing three of your own sisters at a young age. He nevertheless wnet on to spur many to give themselves to God.

The only saint that ever inspired me was St. Augustine, he had a very modern outlook on life. He lived with his concubine, drank lots of wine, partied with his friends, broke the occasional law, tested the boundaries of morality, pursued his career in the big city...and read numerous books from the Pagan philosophers. Then and only then, did he convert and become the most righteous defender of the church. He sounds like he grew up in 21st century New York City ...just like me.

Is it true that an opus dei operative stated that,"George W Bush was actually the first Roman Catholic U.S. President?"

[karlkarlkarl1234]

How in any capacity is that "evil"?

It's quite the opposite.

There is a difference between spirituality and religion. Perhaps those that can't abide the idea that their unknown behaviors are still held accountable to them are those that shun idea of a loving Father...
